EDITORS COMMENTS

The image, taken from a vantage point within the exhibition's gallery, reveals a stunning view of the circular seating arrangement in the Forening and General (F/G) section.

The commissioners were joined by other notable figures, such as generals, politicians, and celebrities, making for an impressive delegation. The Paris Exhibition of 1889, also known as the Exposition Universelle, marked the centennial celebration of the French Revolution and attracted millions of visitors from around the world. This photograph captures the excitement and innovation of the event, with the circular seating arrangement symbolizing the unity and collaboration among nations.
